Halloween Hoopla!

I realize that this is a random leap from my last blog, but I was chatting about costumes with Rylee today.  Here is a recap of costumes from the past.  Thank goodness my mom is so talented! I may be creative, but I did not have the skill to sew these great costumes.

Here is Rylee's first Halloween. I decided since she was crawling, a turtle would be appropriate. It turned out perfect!


The following year, Rylee wasn't really old enough yet to decide what she wanted to be, so I dreamed up this cute little number, and luckily my mom figured out exactly how to execute it!
 

And finally, last year Rylee was able to choose what she wanted to be and of all things chose to be an ice cube! 

Somehow, we pulled that off, but it's going to be hard to top on a creativity level.

When I asked her what she wanted to be this year, at first she said she wanted her cousin Brayden to be a fly so that she could be a fly swatter.  Although it sounded like more of an excuse to beat up her cousin, I thought it was super creative and was already excited to get started.

THEN........she decided she wants to be a pumpkin. No offense to people whose children make adorable pumpkins, but how boring and unoriginal! Oh well, I am sure she will change her mind at least 5 more times and maybe the final result will be something AMAZING!

STAY TUNED!
